Testimonials from the Experts

“The Hemsleys’ dishes give us a direct link to the natural world. Jasmine and Melissa champion the importance of sourcing wherever possible, high quality ingredients from fertile soils and from animals grazing herb-filled pastures. They plug us into functioning ecosystems where plants, animals and the hidden populations of the soil all have their place. This is cooking that celebrates the natural world we belong to. It recognises our own essential humanity while respecting the plants and animals we use. It’s far more than “guilt free” eating. This is eating to make our world healthier, richer in wildlife and more beautiful.” – Graham Harvey, author of Grass-Fed Nation: Getting Back the Food We Deserve

“I love Jasmine and Melissa’s wonderful recipes and the amazing philosophy they have around food. As a Medical Doctor this is something that I very much believe in and I am a huge champion of the work that they both do.” – Dr CC, Environmental Consultant

“I love that the Hemsley + Hemsley girls celebrate a true feel good factor about food and eating well. A totally positive focus on nourishing your body with nutritious ‘real’ ingredients and a philosophy based on what you CAN eat not what you can’t. I think this is exactly where healthy eating should be centred. Delicious, energising and inspiring approach based on natural, dynamic and beautiful foods. Bravo on two exceptional books that I recommend time over to my clients” – Eve Kalinik, Nutritional Therapist

“Jasmine and Melissa Hemsley are showing a new generation how to love, respect, and prepare real, nourishing, food. They are doing it in a fun way, with delicious and practical recipes, but the important contribution which they make to health should not be under-estimated. It’s easy to understand why people have lost touch with the fact that nutrient-dense food is our first line of defence when it comes to health. The results of eating a ‘convenience’ diet of processed foods full of empty calories and synthetic additives, however, can be seen all around us in chronic disease, obesity, and allergies. Jasmine and Melissa are helping to redress the balance, by using their talents and passion to inspire and empower others to take better control of their health, through food.”– Hermann Keppler, Principal of CNM (College of Naturopathic Medicine)

“The Hemsley sisters have a refreshing take on healthy eating – encouraging us to embrace good fats and to stop calorie counting. Their energy and enthusiasm for good food and eating well is highly infectious.” – Kerry Torrens, Nutritional Therapist

“H+H recipes are very well balanced in terms of macronutrients, i.e. high quality protein, complex carbs (omitting gluten) and good fats. I recommend their recipes in my clinic as a way of inspiring my clients to nourish themselves in a healthy fun way. By focusing on real ingredients packed with nutrients, we move towards wellbeing and disease prevention. I admire their work and totally support their ethos.” – Eva Mauleon-Mackenzie, Nutritional Therapist

“Jasmine and Melissa Hemsley are a real breeze of fresh air in a world that sees an overload of contradicting (and sometimes false) information about healthy eating. Their food is delicious and nutritious, and in cooking and eating this way you learn how to greatly benefit your health and general well-being – you will never look back! Food will become your best medicine, a way to support your body and mind. Soul food all the way!” – Florence Lefebvre, Flo Yoga Instructor

“I absolutely adore Hemsley + Hemsley. I was given their book by a dear friend and she warned me, “watch out, they will change your style of cooking”. She was right! Ghee has become our staple ingredient in everything we cook and I believe our children’s immunity has become stronger over time. We eat far more pulses than we used to, and I always look for farmers markets to shop for groceries now.

My husband’s parents and brother are trained French chefs, so having them over for Christmas is a daunting experience. Last Christmas I cooked the ‘Roast duck with Cranberry and Orange Jam’ recipe from the book and they were delighted by the meal!” – Shwetha

“Thank you for turning my gluten free existence into a happy healthy one. For the last few years since my diagnosis I put on so much weight (I was nearly 24stone at my highest) I was so unhappy, and found it so hard to eat real food that tasted good that wouldn’t make me ill. With the help of both of your books I’ve enjoyed cooking food my husband and I both enjoy and so far I’ve lost almost 5stone without weighing food and its all so tasty. Huge thanks. You have helped me so much. You really have changed my life.” -K.M.

“I have always been interested in nutrition and it’s effects and always thought I ate in a healthy way. About 18 months ago I was diagnosed with an under-active thyroid which led me to investigating how to improve my condition and general wellbeing .

After reading books on nutrition (everything from Paleo to Ketogenic), it struck me that I was depriving my body of all the things it truly deserved! Eating natural fats was something that I soon understood was not the “devil” in our store cupboard. I transitioned with trepidation and removed processed ‘healthy’ foods, gluten and sugar from my diet.

The Art of Eating Well was amongst the books I read and WOW how the Hemsley + Hemsley girls just made it all seem so easy…but not only that…delicious! They were using the foods that as a child I was brought up on (offal, organ meats, bone broth) and discussed fermentation, a great way of introducing probiotics back into our depleted standard westernised diet. I’m healthier than I have been for taking on these lifestyle changes, and want to thank Hemsley + Hemsley for making my journey to better health a pleasure, as their recipes hit my plate most days of the week.

I recommend the books constantly, because even if you don’t have any underlying conditions they are nutritious, simple, delicious and filling. It was an absolute pleasure to meet the girls at their book signing, they deserve every success, putting food on our plates that should have been there a long time ago!” – Amanda

“I would like to thank you girls so much, after trying for 16 months I have finally fallen pregnant and I think your amazing recipes and way of eating has been a positive contribution to that, so thank you!” – Jess

‘I am renowned for my inability to cook and have always had quite a stressful relationship with food. As a mum to two pre-teen girls, I really wanted to learn how to give them wholesome meals and to encourage a happy attitude to food and health. I bought your book and to be honest it initially terrified me! All those ingredients, all that planning, or so it seemed! After a few weeks I decided to be brave and choose a simple recipe with minimum ingredients. To cut a long story short one success led to another and I am loving this little journey. So thank you for inspiring a cook-phobic, helping me to enjoy food and feed my family in a healthy, stress free way.” – Aletia

“Thank you to you both for a truly inspirational book! I was given your book at a Christmas present and have used it for every meal since then, I used to work as a chef when I was younger and over the years I had lost the love of cooking but it has come back thanks to your book and you have introduced me to new ingredients and flavours that I truly love. Thank you!”– Chris

“I have been looking for a healthy way of eating, not fad diet or meal replacement but something nutritious to fuel my body and give me more energy. I took at look at some of the Hemsley + Hemsley recipes on the website and tried out out (the choc mint pavé) and my boyfriend and I both loved it! After that, I jumped in with both feet, and bought the new Good + Simple book. I’ve made heaps of recipes from both the book and the website, slightly adjusting some of the recipes to add either meat or additional honey (to get my boyfriend on board too!) and I am loving it all. I have been cooking the H+H recipes for most of my meals the last 2 weeks, with a plan to move to only cooking H+H recipes from next week, and I feel so much healthier, happier and have more energy. I love that with small adjustments, my boyfriend enjoys the recipes too and we can enjoy delicious treats without the guilt. The recipes are easy, healthy and so delicious, I cant wait to explore more H+H dishes and expand my repetoire”– Jessica

“About 18 months ago I was diagnosed with colitis. My symptoms ranged from mouth ulcers, fatigue, mood swings, joint pain – lots of that! Plus other unmentionable things. Prior to the diagnosis I had been taking painkillers, specifically ibuprofen – not good with an intestine problem so whilst I was reducing the pain I was unknowingly increasing the problem. Following my diagnosis I was prescribed medicine which after a week made me feel worse so I stopped taking them. A couple of months later I ended up in hospital on a drip after having a severe inflammatory attack. I wasn’t well and decided to investigate the role of food and how it might affect my condition – incidentally, I should point out that my specialist had said there was no correlation with food and inflammatory bowel disease. I felt that this was not the case. Not really knowing where to start, I visited a health food store in Solihull near Birmingham in an attempt to find something or someone that could help. The manager of the store put me in contact with nutritionist who had celiac and had been studying diet and nutrition for many years. After a conversation on the telephone he said he could help. Hope at last ! We met and he took me through the issues of my current diet – essentially, too much grain. Although I ate a generally perceived healthy diet, it was full of grain. He gave me a menu plan and I set off on a journey of no pasta – no more spaghetti vongole (my favourite dish), no more pain au choc or porridge in the morning, no more sandwiches for lunch – it was a complete diet change. Although the menu was good, it would not sustain my interest for the long term. I needed a cookbook that was on the same page that I was. The universe conspired and provided a book of recipes that were not only wonderful but gave me back spaghetti (sort of) in the form of spiralised courgette; gave me desserts – banana bread and muffins, chocolate avocado mousse, gave me cauliflower rice and other wonderful foods are great dishes in their own right. This was of course, The Art of Eating Well by you guys! Since my diet just over a year ago, all my symptoms have reduced. I no longer look pale and washed out the mornings, my mouth ulcers have reduced from volcanoes every 2 weeks to an occasional small eruption once in 3 months. Even my mild hand tremors which I did not consider related to anything have stopped. I have had not an inflammatory attack since starting this new diet journey and all my symptoms have reduced dramatically. So, again, thank you for unknowingly helping me on a journey that has changed my quality of life for the better.”– Zach

“I am 70 years old, I have several autoimmune diseases, have been struggling to find food I can enjoy and still feel good about eating. I saw you two lovely ladies on tv one day and straight away you won me over. Your style of mindful eating fits in with my belief’s about living life. I love Jasmine and Melissa, they are good role models for today’s young women.” – L.W.
